Ladies Lunch: An Acknowledgment of the Importance of Diversity

They were not kidding when they said our lunch plans will fill up quickly this summer! I have had the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful people during the lunch hour (while also exploring the great cuisine Brickell has to offer). One of the first invitations I received was for a “Ladies Lunch” and I became very curious as to what exactly this was. I soon learned that every so often the women at the firm go out as a group for lunch and that this has become a sort of tradition.

This is why I was so pleased not only to be invited to the Ladies Lunch, but to know that such opportunities exist at Bilzin Sumberg. It was encouraging to get to know women from a variety of practice areas with varying years of experience.

I am also looking forward to the LGBTQ Pride Month Reception that will be taking place here at Bilzin Sumberg later this month. This is a great opportunity to learn more about changes in the judicial system that relate to the LGBTQ community and I am sure the event will foster a great conversation on the topic.

Inclusion, in all forms, can have a tangible effect on financial return and firm morale. And, I appreciate when diversity is actively promoted as we strive for broader inclusion in the legal profession.
